In Beiping, in the newly established office of the Tufeiyuan organ, Tufeiyuan was holding a telegram that had just been sent from Hong Kong, and his face was quite ugly. In front of him, Takahashi stood respectfully, not squinting, but there was a hint of curiosity in his eyes—what was the content of the telegram that could make the head of the Tsuchihara Agency, who was extremely deep in the city and easily not angry, so out of shape?

Tsuchihara scolded: "Matsui, this bastard, can't do just a small thing. This blood cherry blossom is too, why don't you kill Ouyang Yun directly?! "If Ouyang Yun doesn't die, then Song Zheyuan will definitely not be so easy, so once the 10-day deadline is up, will the Kwantung Army really want to march into North China? Then who will pay attention to those anti-Japanese forces in the three northeastern provinces?! It was regarded by His Majesty the Emperor as the future industrial and agricultural base of the empire - after scolding, he frowned and pondered for a while, and then asked Takahashi Tan: "You said that the Nationalist Government appointed Shang Zhen as the chairman of the Hebei Provincial Government?" ”

"Hello."

The Nationalist Government's targeted series of arrangements in Hebei did not hide from the Japanese, and Takahashi's purpose was to report the matter and discuss countermeasures. Shang Zhen was born in the Jin Army, is currently the commander of the 32nd Army, and is the former commander of Tianjin Security, Tu Feiyuan is no stranger to him. He seriously thought about it for a while and decided to take care of it, on the one hand, he continued to force Song Zheyuan to express his position; At the same time, he contacted Yin Rugeng and asked him to take the lead in setting up a "Anti-Communist Autonomous Committee" in Yidong, and turn the demilitarized zone stipulated in the "Tanggu Agreement" into a small "puppet Manchuria" first; Then enlist the support of Han Fuqu in Shandong, Yan Xishan in Shanxi, and Fu Zuoyi in Suiyuan, and see if they can enclose Song Zheyuan's troops in a circle and force him to accept the fact of "a high degree of autonomy in North China".

In the evening, at the entrance of the village north of Nanjiazhuang in the southern suburbs of Duolun County, Chu Tiange and Zhang Xiaoquan were about to enter the village to buy some food, when they suddenly saw smoke and dust billowing from the south of Zhuangzi, and then the sound of gongs sounded in Zhuangzi, followed by a strong man's shout: "Wang San Mazi is here!" Wang San Mazi is here......"

Wang San Mazi is the nickname of a bandit leader who is active in the local area, and he has 100 people and more than 30 guns under his command, and has always been one of the great evils in the Duolun area.

Nanjiazhuang was disturbed for a long time, and under the planning of the chief Nan Nanren, he organized people to set up an anti-bandit self-defense force. As soon as Nanda sounded the gong to warn in Zhuangkou, the men in Zhuangzi took action one after another, rushing out with hunting forks, bows and arrows, and old sleeves, while the women began to shout at their own babies to go into the house to hide.

Nangouzi, who lived in the northernmost part of the village, picked up a hunting fork and rushed out of the house, and saw Chu Tiange and Zhang Xiaoquan through the stone wall and iron gate at the entrance of the village, and couldn't help but be startled, and shouted: "There are bandits here, too. Then he ran quickly behind the stone wall, and put his fork on the stone wall.

Several families adjacent to Tajia heard the shouts of Nangouzi, and several men immediately rushed here, and when a man about thirty years old held a bird, he hid behind a big tree in front of Nangouzi's house and began to aim at Chu and Chang.

Chu Tiange was startled, and hurriedly shouted: "Fellow, we are not bandits, we are just passing by and want to buy some food, don't shoot." ”

Hearing that he had a foreign accent and was wearing a suit, the man with the bird command stood up, commanded everyone to surround them, looked at them suspiciously, and said, "Since you are a foreigner, then you should leave quickly, there are bandits coming here." ”

At this time, gunshots and shouts rang out from the south end of the village, and the bandits had already rushed into the village on horseback. Chu Tiange pulled out his pistol and said, "We'll help you fight the bandits!" Zhang Xiaoquan nodded and pulled out his gun.

The villagers were startled when they saw them take out the box cannon, and the man was bolder, and asked them with a bird: "Sir, are you ***?" ”

Chu Tiange thought for a while and said, "We are from the first column of the Yidong special police. ”

The man was overjoyed and said, "Then thank you and thank the two military masters." He hurriedly opened the iron gate, and led them to the south end of the village.

Wang San Mazi's real name is ** strong, once served as a soldier in the Northeast Army, and later because of ** women were expelled and squatted in prison for three years, after coming out, he returned to Duolun first to live by petty theft, and then became the boss of the gang in the south of Duolun County, two years ago, he was favored by the Japanese and gave money and guns, which pulled up people and immediately became bandits. In the past two years, especially after the Japanese were able to justifiably enter the two places (the Japanese could enter the demilitarized zone under the pretext of reconnaissance), they did a very bad thing with the support of the Japanese. Nanjiazhuang is the target he has been watching for a long time, but due to the existence of the first column of the Yidong special police, the villagers of Nanjiazhuang are very vigilant and have not succeeded. Not long ago, he received an order from the Japanese to let them be more active recently, occupy more territory and wait for Yin Rugeng to take over, so he decided to wait for the opportunity to take Nanjiazhuang. Coincidentally, yesterday he received information that Zhang Qingyu had gone to Tianjin, so he chose to come to loot at this time today.

In other villages, as soon as their guns rang out, the villagers were so frightened that they did not dare to squeak and let them be slaughtered. But Tangjiazhuang is an exception, they were found at the entrance of the village, gunshots rang out, the villagers did not disperse, but gathered to attack them. The topography of Nanjiazhuang is very good, the back of the village is a mountain, and in front of the village is a stream about six meters wide, there are only two exits in the north and south, and there are stone walls at the exits, and there are shooting ports on the wall, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. They had just approached the stone wall, and several shots rang out, an old sleeve and a shotgun fired at the same time, and two bandits were hit, one fell to his death on the spot, and the other was hit in the face with iron sand, bleeding profusely, and covered his face and wailed in pain.

Wang San Mazi was very annoyed when he saw that the villagers were so fierce that the bandits who served as the strikers became timid. Their original plan was to take Nanjiazhuang and take some money to take over the village, so as to wait for Yin Rugeng to take it in, and now in order to strengthen morale, he announced that after capturing the village, all the men will be killed, and the women will be left to everyone's disposal. Then he tore open his shirt, revealing his scarred chest, picked up two box cannons, clamped the horse's belly between his feet, and rushed forward in one fell swoop.

The bandits heard that they could dispose of the women in the village at will, and one by one they were like eating **, and they saw that the big boss was so brave, and they shouted loudly one by one, and those who had horses whipped hard on the horse's buttocks, and those who did not have horses also spread their legs and galloped, and rushed to the iron gate one by one.

Wang San Mazi rushed to the front of the team, fired two guns in succession, knocked down two villagers through the gap in the railing of the iron gate, then held the right-handed pistol with his mouth, took out a grenade in his right hand and threw it behind the stone wall.

There was a loud "boom", and fireworks and flesh flew behind the stone wall, screaming again and again.

Hearing the explosion, Chu Tiange frowned, took out a grenade captured from the little devil, put the pull ring on his finger, and then rushed forward at a faster speed.

Nanfang Ren, as the only soldier in the village, used an old sleeve brought back from the Northwest Army. He killed a bandit with the first shot, but this also provoked a frenzied revenge from the bandits. Wang San Mazi's grenade exploded right behind him, Wang San Mazi was worthy of being a soldier, and the grenade was thrown trickily, killing four villagers, including him, and injuring three at once. He was afraid that the enemy would throw grenades, so he hurriedly told everyone to lie down, and then crawled to the iron gate, and decided to take the risk of solving Wang San Mazi first.

Wang San Mazi used a grenade to solve the opponent's firepower point, then stopped there, guarded the surroundings with two guns, and asked his men to open the iron gate.

The iron gate was chained, and several bandits on horseback rushed to the iron gate, jumped off their horses, drew their blades, and smashed the back of their knives at the chains. At this time, Chu Tiange turned a corner, and finally rushed to a distance less than 100 meters away from the iron gate, and saw the bandits smashing the door, he flipped the gun flat with his left hand, and finished all the bullets.

Chu Tiange's marksmanship is average, but such a dense rapid-fire still takes care of all the bandits who smashed the door. The bandits were killed and wounded, and Wang San Mazi and others in the back found Chu Tiange and them, and raised their guns and shot over.

Chu Tiange shouted and fell down, rolled forward and rolled behind a tree, and shouted to Zhang Xiaoquan who was lying behind the wall: "Cover me!" Without waiting for the gunfire to stop, he half-crouched up and jumped forward leaning against the tree by the river.

"I didn't expect there to be hard stubble here!" Wang San Mazi was not flustered, seeing that Chu Tiange was very clever in using the big tree as a cover to rush to this side, he asked for a 38 big cover from a bandit, ignored Zhang Xiaoquan's shot, and began to aim at Chu Tiange.

Zhang Xiaoquan was compressed behind the wall by the bullets of the bandits, and could only shoot by feeling, and a few bullets only hit a horse, but failed to hurt a single bandit.

Wang San Mazi had already concluded that the other party had more formal firearms such as box cannons, and he aimed at Chu Tiange even more fearlessly, and decided to show off his marksmanship in front of his subordinates.

However, before he could escape Chu Tiange into the crosshairs, Nan Nanren, who had climbed to the iron gate, took the opportunity to seize the opportunity. Zhang Xiaoquan and Chu Tiange attracted all the firepower of the bandits, and the bullets whizzed through the iron gate and went to the back. Nan Nanren quietly stretched out the barrel of the gun, and it was a shot in Wang Sanmazi's face.

The old sleeve is a bit dull compared to other guns because of the extra sleeve on the barrel. The bullet used by Nan Nanren is still a round-headed bullet, and the wounds caused by this bullet are often large, and at such a close distance, Wang San Mazi didn't have time to react and opened a big hole in his face.

The bandits with guns are shooting vigorously one by one, and those without guns are waiting to watch the heroic performance of the big boss. However, they suddenly found that a big hole was cracked in the head of the big boss, and they were first shocked and silent, and when Wang San Mazi's body fell off the horse, they knew what had happened to the road, and someone screamed: "The big boss is dead, the big boss is dead!" ”

When the shooters heard that the boss was dead, they hurriedly stopped shooting and gathered around his body. At this time, Chu Tiange was already less than 50 meters away from them, so he naturally would not let go of such a good opportunity, the grenade was thrown out of the first place, and then he stood in the middle of the road with a gun in each hand, and began to shoot according to the bandits in front of him.

The explosion of the grenade came suddenly, killing six at once, injuring more than ten people and horses, the bandits have not yet woken up from the shock of losing their backbone, and if they suffer such a blow again, where do they dare to fight again, those with horses immediately turn their horses and run away, and those without horses even roll and climb backwards, and the soldiers are defeated like a mountain.
